So here are the […]
In 2022, the National League adopted the designated hitter.

New York Yankees rookie shortstop George Lombard Jr. is so unbelievably sick with it, Seattle Mariners rookie shortstop Colt Emerson got sent back down to Triple-A after New York won 2 out of their 3-game series this week.

MLB owners aren’t opening the gates til they salary cap this league, looking around the landscape, NBA teams sold for multi-billy’s while MLB teams struggle with the lack of a defined wage ledger they can pencil in annually. Meanwhile, the MLB players’ association appears the last remaining major sports union not selling their rights for […]
The Yankees 2026 stopping a runaway train with all their might, Peter Parker pulling webstrings, tearing his rotator cuffs to shreds, buildings bend as New York—a team designed to out clobber the field, missing their mightiest clobberer, the one with the most clobbers in single-season history, drug free is the way to be—clings to the […]
Last week’s series against the Chicago White Sox mattered. Climbing from the dungeons to the rooftops, Chicago leads the AL Central, only 4 wins behind the Yankees, the Bronx Bombers defused, Aaron Judge, Cody Bellinger and Giancarlo Stanton all out indefinitely.

One night a year, Major League Baseball asks its employees to wear a hat to indicate to their audience, “hey, it’s okay if you are gay”. Yea, it’s corporate gobbledy-gook but the players—many earning millions of dollars—one Gay Pride hat, one time a year, as a signifier all are welcome to come and spend their […]
The New York Yankees beat the Chicago White Sox with hammers on Tuesday night. A 12-2 victory over the surprisingly good White Sox team after exploding in the 4th inning to ruin Davis Martin’s night.
